Cycling in Paris made me appreciate the Dutch cycling culture more than ever. 🚥 Streets that simply make space for everyone 🙌🏽 😁 People who aren’t defined by their mode of mobility 🤌🏼 🚲 Bike lanes that get you to exactly where you need to be 👍🏼 What do you love most about Dutch cycling culture…?

Glimpse behind the scenes. BBC News reporting x The Hague. You may think I cycle cuz I care about saving🌱🌍💶 or keeping fit Reality - juggling breaking news, school runs & podcasting, 🚲 means I hit work/life deadlines.. zero traffic stress! Our Bike Studio isn’t just efficient - it’s essential 😊

Eco-friendly; efficiency on two wheels 🌱 Freedom of a bike studio means… - ability to pull over & record/film as soon as I’m needed📻🚲 - no parking hassles, no traffic jams – just effortless transitions from riding to reporting 🙌🏽 📸 earlier today. BBC R4/World Service documentary coming soon.

As foreign correspondent covering conflict, international (in)justice & misinformation, I find making these 🎞️while cycling extremely cathartic. Hope you get a similar sense of escapism from watching them ✌🏼 We’ve been approached by potential sponsors - would you want more of this, more regularly?

Ok, we need to dig up the road. Dutch: Sure, just make sure you put down temporary infrastructure to ensure people on bikes aren’t impacted 🙌🏽

People in Paris asked if there are bike lanes on every street in the Netherlands… No, but there’s a cycling culture on every street 🤩

Is Paris a ‘fully bikeable’ city…? In 🇫🇷 capital recording BBC radio documentary… Much of it from the saddle 🚲

Are you a “cycling influencer”? 🚲 Inspired by the Dutch ambassador calling me one, I’m developing a range of merchandise to celebrate everyday cycling culture. To me, anyone who promotes cycling simply by doing it embodies the true essence of a “cycling influencer.” Merch dropping in 2025! 🚀

Fully embracing Dutch philosophy… If it can be done by bicycle; do it by bicycle 💚
